The Chargers completed their head coach interview with Dan Quinn, the team announced on Friday.
Quinn finished up his third season as the Cowboys’ defensive coordinator. His defense finished in the top five in yards allowed per game, passing yards per game and points allowed per game.
Before joining Dallas, spent six seasons as the head coach of the Falcons, guiding them to two playoff appearances, including a Super Bowl appearance in 2016.
Quinn was the defensive coordinator of the Seahawks before his time with Atlanta. In his first season as DC, Seattle led the league in fewest points allowed, fewest yards allowed, and takeaways. That year, they won the Super Bowl over the Broncos.
Quinn has other coaching stops with the 49ers, Dolphins and Jets as a defensive line coach. He has also coached at the college level, most notably as the DC and defensive line coach for Florida for the 2011 and 2012 seasons.
